L'Association Fragile / Christian Rizzo

Le talent de Rizzo est étonnant.Mouvement.net

After his impressive performance with d’Après une histoire vraie, Christian Rizzo is returning to Leuven. His point of departure for this new creation is the bringing together of two of his most iconic performers: Julie Guibert and Kerem Gelebek. He undertakes a choreographic investigation to reinstate unknown and unloved patterns in folk dance. In doing this, he’s drawn much of his inspiration from the vast repertoire of ballroom dance, among others. The third protagonist is a totem/monolith of light, sound and imagery. The object forms its own language, acting as an amplified loudspeaker in dialogue with the dance. A homage to obscurity and its forces in which, once again, Christian Rizzo connects the essence of dance with a layered score of sound and a composition of quivering light.
